The Florida Man Hurricane Tracker uses data from the National Hurricane Center to plot hurricanes in the Atlantic basin. Then, using your location it determines how far the hurricane is from you and how close it will get based on NHC forecast positions. Remember, the Florida Man Hurricane Tracker is for information/entertainment only. You should always rely on the NHC and your local authorities for the most accurate information and about actions to take for an approaching hurricane.
